Fried Parsnips

Ingredients

Directions

Using a vegetable peeler, cut paper-thin strips lengthwise from top to bottom of the parsnip, turning it as you work, making about 40 strips, about 10 strips per serving.

Heat 4 inches of oil in a large pot or electric fryer to 360ºF.

Drop the strips, all at one time, into the hot oil. Be very careful as the hot oil may splatter. Using a slotted spoon or spatula, gently stir the strips around in the oil until golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
